How to make perfect lassi?

Making lassi at home is quick and easy, but making perfect lassi might be little tricky. Yogurt and milk are the two main ingredients that I consider as deciding factors of a perfect lassi. The texture and creaminess of lassi depends on quality of yogurt we use. Ratio of milk and yogurt decides the rich and perfectly thick consistency of lassi. I managed to make the creamy and rich rose lassi after trying different ratio and different brands of yogurt. I suggest using greek yogurt or any thick natural yogurt and do not use any ice cubes after blending as it thins down the lassi. Instead chill lassi in refrigerator before serving.

Is rose lassi recipe adaptable?

Yes!! this recipe is totally adaptable to suit your preferred taste. You could add little honey or sugar to sweeten the lassi (I didn’t add any as rose syrup has enough sweetness). Generally lassi tastes best when served thick and creamy, but feel free to add more milk or chilled water to thin it down. You may swap crushed cardamom for cardamom seeds. You could add a dash of rose-water to enhance the fragrance.

NOTES

You could use store-bought rose syrup such as rooh-afza if you don’t have enough time to make rose syrup at home.

You might have to cut down rose syrup if using store-bought stuff. I would suggest to add half the quantity required and check the sweetness and fragrance of rose syrup after blending. Add more syrup if necessary.

Keep lassi in refrigerator if you wish to serve later.

You can store lassi upto 2 days in refrigerator.

As I have used homemade rose syrup(didn’t add any artificial food colouring) the lassi has turned light pink, lassi might turn bright and vibrant pink with store-bought rose syrup as it has artificial food colouring.
